The heart is deceitful above all things,
and desperately wicked: who can know it?
Jeremiah 17:9
"A New Zealand website is advising people with symptoms of coronavirus to drink or inhale a bleach product sold by the Hauraki Plains-based "bishop" of a cult-like American organization.
But experts warn that the product - chlorine dioxide - is dangerous, should not be taken, and will not cure Covid-19.
Ngatea man Roger Blake, who sells the bleach through his online business NZ Water Purifier Limited, is a 'bishop' of the Genesis II Church of Health and Healing.
The 'church' originated in Florida and is not religious. Its sole function is to promote the use of the bleach formula that it calls Miracle Mineral Supplement, or MMS, which its followers also sell. (To become a 'bishop' of the church, one can download a $320 video course, and must provide two video testimonials of people who have been 'treated' with MMS.)
The New Zealand website that advises people to drink the bleach, Miracle Mineral, is linked to the same Ngatea address as Blake's
online NZ Water Purifier business. The Miracle Mineral website provides instructions on how to consume the bleach product for both adults and babies.
The site claims that bleach has been "tested effective against Coronavirus". It explicitly tells users which of the products to buy from Blake's NZ Water Purifier business and how to prepare them, with a link to the website where sodium chlorite and hydrochloric acid can be purchased for $33 in two 125ml bottles as "Water Purification Solution".
When combined, the two liquids create a reddish-brown liquid, chlorine dioxide, which is commonly used as bleach.
Medical researcher Dr. Shaun Holt said ...
"It goes without saying it's extremely dangerous to consume it. It's industrial strength bleach. There's not a jot of scientific evidence that it can help anything."
Consuming bleach can cause nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and dehydration, which in severe cases can lead to death.
The product can also be explosive if not handled with care."
